Diffusion for Combating the Hallucination in Large Language Models (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2026technical

Large language models (LLMs) often generate hallucinations—fluent yet factually incorrect responses—that undermine reliability in knowledge-intensive tasks. Existing approaches for hallucination mitigation typically rely on external retrieval modules or probability heuristics, which either require a

HOW CAN QUANTUM DEEP LEARNING IMPROVE LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS?

ICASSP 2026oral

The rapid progress of large language models (LLMs) has transformed natural language processing, yet the challenge of efficient adaptation remains unresolved. Full fine-tuning achieves strong performance but imposes prohibitive computational and memory costs. Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) st…

Hybrid PPO–DQN for Multi-Objective Adaptive Cruise Control in Eco-Driving: Reward Shaping Toward Safety and Sustainability (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2026technical

In adaptive cruise control (ACC), balancing safety, comfort, and sustainability still remains challenging. Accordingly, we propose a hybrid reinforcement learning framework combining proximal policy optimization (PPO) and deep Q-network (DQN) with a multi-objective reward for autonomous carbon-neutr

Multimodal Coarse-to-Local Transformer for End-to-End Autonomous Driving (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2026technical

End-to-end (E2E) autonomous driving must maintain global consistency while preserving local precision. However, existing E2E approaches rarely achieve both goals simultaneously. Therefore, we propose a multimodal coarse-to-local transformer (MC2L-Transformer), which is composed of a hierarchical tra

Quantum Robust Inner Minimization for Reinforcement Learning with Quadratic Speed-Up in Query Complexity

ICML 2026poster

Robust reinforcement learning (RRL) aims to tackle unexpected environmental changes by optimizing policies against the worst case. However, RRL remains impractical due to the cost of the Max-Min optimization, where it suffers from the exhaustive query complexity for finding the worst-case (dubbed 'M…

zkQML: Verifiable and Privacy-Preserving Inference for Quantum Machine Learning (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2026technical

Quantum machine learning (QML) has attracted growing interest for their ability to achieve superior performance with significantly fewer parameters. However, the high cost and scarcity of current hardware push inference to cloud-hosted quantum devices, creating a tension between verifiability and co

Hybrid Quantum-Classical Style Transfer (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2025technical

This paper proposes a novel quantum style transfer (QST) in hybrid quantum-classical computing. QST leverages quantum computing's ability to process high-dimensional data efficiently. Our approach aims to decrease both inference time and complexity while maintaining performance, presenting a viable…

Quantum Reinforcement Learning for Coordinated Satellite Systems

ICASSP 2025accepted

Reinforcement learning (RL) using conventional neural networks (NN) has significantly progressed in various applications. However, conventional RL needs help training in environments with large-scale action dimensions, such as coordinated mobility/satellite systems. Quantum reinforcement learning (Q…

FV-Train: Quantum Convolutional Neural Network Training with a Finite Number of Qubits by Extracting Diverse Features (Student Abstract)

AAAI 2023technical

Quantum convolutional neural network (QCNN) has just become as an emerging research topic as we experience the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) era and beyond. As convolutional filters in QCNN extract intrinsic feature using quantum-based ansatz, it should use only finite number of qubits to…

Self-Adaptive Machine Learning Operating Systems for Security Applications

ICASSP 2018accepted

This paper proposes a reliable and self-adaptive operating system management policy for CCTV-based security applications which controls arrival image compression rates. After receiving image sequences via CCTV cameras, the system enqueues the sequences of images and processes them for face recogniti…
